Ice Dye Kit

Jacquard's Ice Dyes are mixtures of many distinct colors that separate and "split" into incredible multi-color patterns when used with ice dyeing method. Just cover the folded or scrunched fabric with ice, sprinkle the dye on top, and let the ice melt!

Ice dyeing is one of the easiest and most rewarding dyeing experiences there is, and the process is simple: soak the cotton fabric in a solution of soda ash (use 2 cups of soda ash per gallon of water when ice dyeing), then wring it out and tie, fold or scrunch it up, then place it in a colander and cover it in ice or snow, and then sprinkle dye over the ice. Allow the ice to melt overnight in a warm place, and then rinse and wash 24-48 hours later. 

The ice causes the component colors of the blended dye to "split" and separate, producing an incredible crystalline pattern of many distinct colors, almost like a kaleidoscope. Imagine the folded fabric as a mountain range: the peaks will dye a different color than the valleys, and you'll see a beautiful stratification of different colors in between.

Jacquard's new Ice Dye colors are formulated to provide the most dramatic and distinct color splits possible. You won't believe the results!!
